CSU 2030 Strategic Plan

Our Foundation for the FUTURE

Clayton State University’s Strategic Plan serves as a testament to our institutional commitment to social mobility and positive transformation to better the lives of our engaging and resilient student body. Moreover, by virtue of our dedicated faculty and staff, along with our supportive community of alumni, corporate colleagues, and local educational partners, we will influence the trajectory of Atlanta’s southern crescent and beyond.

The theme, Transforming Today for Tomorrow, authentically reflects who we are as a university, standing firm on our values of adaptability, collaboration, excellence, integrity and remaining a people-centered institution. The next several years will be integral to the continued success of the university as an anchor institution, becoming an even stronger beacon of education and opportunity in our community, while expanding outside the region.
